SEVENOAKS DISTRICT COUNCIL MASTER VISION FOR SWANLEY AND HEXTABLE WRITTEN REPORT

TABLE OF CONTENTS


X3X

1.1 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

Sevenoaks District Council has prepared a ‘Master Vision’ to be used in the

development and regeneration of Swanley and Hextable. This ‘Master Vision’

was informed by the results of a consultation carried out in February 2016

during which a number of priorities were identified.

In order to accurately quantify residents’ views and opinions of the proposals,

a further public consultation was undertaken encompassing an online

questionnaire and self-completion postal questionnaire running from 7th

September to 2nd November 2016.

As part of the consultation, Sevenoaks District Council held six drop in

sessions in Swanley and Hextable and various other events throughout

September and October engaging with different stakeholders. This gave local

people the opportunity to see the Master Vision and understand its place in

planning policy and also talk to SDC staff about the plans. The public

consultation was promoted throughout the area and public participation in the

events was encouraged to enable people to understand the vision and ask any

questions before completing the consultation questionnaire. It is estimated

that these sessions attracted over 1,000 people and additional consultation

questionnaires were also distributed to attendees.

The questionnaire was divided into eight sections with each section including

a detailed description and images (where possible) of the proposals.

Respondents were then asked to indicate their level of agreement with a

number of proposals within each section.

The primary objective was to ascertain and understand the views of residents

and business owners in Swanley and the surrounding areas on the proposed

improvements to Swanley town centre and for the wider Swanley town and

Hextable Parish.


1. BACKGROUND, OBJECTIVES AND RESEARCH CONTEXT


X4X

In order to achieve this, SDC commissioned Lake Market Research to manage

the survey process including distributing the postal questionnaire, managing

the online survey, processing and analysing all submissions to produce an

independent and impartial report detailing the views of residents.

In addition a smaller scale consultation was undertaken to reach out to and

include views from younger people. With support from the Head Teacher at

Orchards Academy in Swanley, a secondary school serving the local area, staff

from Sevenoaks District Council and Lake Market Research were granted to

access engage with children on this topic.


X5X

1.2 METHODOLOGY

In order to ensure that all residents had an equal opportunity to give their

view, 9,800 households and businesses within the ‘BR8 7’ and ‘BR8 8’

postcode areas were invited to participate in the consultation via two

methods:

• A self-completion paper questionnaire including a pre-paid return

envelope sent out to a sample of 9,403 households and 397 businesses

in the Swanley and Hextable area (addresses were provided by

Sevenoaks District Council from its Local Land and Property Gazetteer).

• An online version of the questionnaire was published on the Sevenoaks

District Council website for completion.

• To reach the more rural areas of Crockenhill lying outside of the

specified postcode areas, the consultation questionnaires were

distributed with the copies of the parish magazine by Crockenhill Parish

Council; questionnaires were also made available in the Parish Council

offices.

SDC encouraged multiple submissions from households so as to not limit

responses to one response per household; responses from young people were

also encouraged. If names and/or addresses were not provided on the

questionnaires the submissions were excluded as stated on the final page of

the questionnaire. If consultees completed both an online and paper version

of the questionnaire, the latest submission received was processed and any

previous submissions were discarded taking into account that the respondent

may have changed their opinion.

Following a review of the data obtained from the main consultation, a

secondary small consultation was undertaken to engage the younger age

group at Orchards Academy. Staff at the school selected different classes

from years seven, eight and nine (age range 11-14 years) to attend a

presentation given by Sevenoaks District Council and subsequently the pupils

completed a consultation questionnaire on a tablet supplied by Lake Market

Research.

Parents and / or guardians were advised in advance that children attending

the Orchards Academy maybe asked to participate in the consultation.


X6X

The original consultation questionnaire was adapted slightly to use more child-

friendly terminology; however, care was taken to avoid any alterations in

wording that could change the meaning of the proposals.

Lake Market Research was on hand to assist the children with the operation of

the tablets and answer any queries in relation to the questionnaire.

The survey comprised questions based on a rating scale from ‘Strongly Agree’

to ‘Strongly Disagree’ as well as a ‘This does not affect me’ option. Consultees

were then given the opportunity to submit comments on the proposals in a

free text area within the questionnaire. Lake Market Research has quantified

these by grouping them into common themes.

All research conducted by Lake Market Research abides by the Code of

Conduct and we are a member of the Market Research Society.

1.3 SAMPLING

The confidence interval (also called margin of error) is the plus-or-minus

figure usually reported. For example, if you use a confidence interval of 4 and

47% percent of your sample picks an answer you can be "sure" that if you had

asked the question of the entire relevant population between 43% (47-4) and

51% (47+4) would have picked that answer. The confidence level tells you

how sure you can be. It is expressed as a percentage and represents how

often the true percentage of the population who would pick an answer lies

within the confidence interval. The 95% confidence level means you can be

95% certain; the 99% confidence level means you can be 99% certain. Most

researchers use the 95% confidence level.

Confidence Level 95%

Sample Size 1,816

Population 22,485*

Percentage 50%

Confidence Interval +/- 2.2%

*We have assumed that the majority of pupils who participated in the

consultation at Orchards Academy reside in the five wards of Swanley and

Hextable.

When we put together the confidence level and the confidence interval and

using the worse case scenario where the answer is completely divided 50/50,

we can say that we are 95% sure that the true percentage of the population

(22,485) would answer between 47.8% and 52.2% (+/- 2.2%). Therefore, this

can be considered a robust sample.

1.4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

We would like to thank all those who took the time to complete the

consultation documentation.

X12X

This section of the report summarises the level of agreement or disagreement

with each of the proposals. The following charts show unweighted data

(N=1,838) with consultees indicating their views.

The charts show the level of agreement and disagreement with each proposal.

The ‘Agree’ portion of the charts merge the consultees who selected ‘Strongly

Agree’ and ‘Agree’ within the questionnaire and the ‘Disagree’ portion of the

charts merge consultees who selected ‘Strongly Disagree’ and ‘Disagree’

within the questionnaire.

The respondents who selected ‘This does not affect me’ or chose not to

provide an answer have been excluded from the calculations pertaining to the

percentages used to generate the charts. Therefore, each question has a

different base size (N=various) which is shown adjacent to each proposal in

the charts, there is another column which shows the number of respondents

who are excluded from percentage calculations.

Following the chart illustrating the levels of agreement and disagreement with

each of the proposals, there is an additional chart summarising the free text

comments made in question nine. These charts have been created by grouping

common themes together and quantifying them in order to produce a chart

representing the themes. In total there were comments made on 1,036

questionnaire submissions from the main consultation.

There were several comments made that do not relate to the consultation

proposals so these have been excluded from the report.


4. AGREEMENT WITH MASTER VISION


X13X

4.1 SWANLEY AS A NEW ‘GARDEN VILLAGE’

Plans for a new Swanley ‘Garden Village’ are described in the consultation as:

The proposals are:

Respondents were asked to indicate their level of agreement with the above

proposals:

Swanley needs a variety of new homes including private housing to meet future needs, whether

these are for first time buyers, families or for people in later life. This means new housing should

be planned in a way that responds to these needs and is supported by a wide range of services

and facilities.

The Master Vision looks at the potential for Swanley to have possible new housing to the east of

Swanley as a new ‘Garden Village’ to reflect the horticultural heritage of the area with improved

transport links and potentially a ‘station halt’. The government has launched plans to promote

Garden Villages. For Swanley, this could mean:

• New spacious family friendly housing

• Housing supported by parks, play spaces, health and education

• Improving green spaces and access from them into the town

• Improved transport links

Q1a - New spacious and family friendly housing (garden village) with play and park areas outside of Swanley town centre Q1b - Garden village to be served by a new linked ‘Swanley Halt’ station (in addition to the existing station) which would aim to reduce congestion and provide an alternative means of transport

Q1c - Homes and accommodation suitable for the needs of older people


X14X

Almost two-thirds (63%) of respondents agreed with the idea of building new

spacious family friendly housing located in the proposed new garden village.

There was a mixed response to the proposal entailing building a new Swanley

Halt station serving the garden village with both 50% agreeing and

disagreeing.

The majority (81%) of consultees were supportive of the idea of providing

homes and accommodation suitable for the needs of older people.

4.4 NEW HEALTH / MEDICAL CENTRE, LEISURE CENTRE AND OTHER SERVICES

Plans for new health / medical centre, leisure centre and other services are described in the consultation as:

The proposals are:

Q4a - Leisure facilities retained in Swanley Q4b - Better use of the leisure facilities encouraged by locating them more centrally Q4c - New health/medical and leisure facilities built on a small part of the existing recreation ground with the majority of the recreation ground retained as an improved public open space Q4d - New public/town council facilities built alongside open space on the recreation ground Q4e - New or refurbished public/town council facilities facing open space on the recreation ground Q4f - A hotel built on a small part of the existing recreation ground, with the majority of the recreation ground retained as an improved public open space, to take advantage of a relocated railway station Q4g - Development such as apartments in Swanley Town Centre, to reduce pressure on green and open spaces

The Master Vision sets out the potential to make the recreation ground the focus of a new and public space with new health and leisure facilities. There could also be potential for a hotel. The

majority of the recreation ground would be retained as an improved green open space that could

be better used by local people. Any development would be built on the edge of the existing

recreation ground and close to the proposed relocated Swanley station. Any of the recreation

ground used for community facilities would have to be replaced elsewhere in Swanley.


X23X


proposals:

Leisure facilities being retained in Swanley achieved the highest agreement

level of all 27 proposals with 96% agreeing. By comparison the view on

whether to relocate leisure facilities more centrally was divided with 50% of

respondents agreeing and 50% disagreeing.

58% of respondents supported new health / medical and leisure facilities built

on a small part of the recreation ground with the majority of the recreation

ground being retained as improved public open space.

4.8 HEXTABLE

Plans for Hextable are described in the consultation as:

The proposals are:

Q8a - Opportunity to improve the Oasis Academy site to create new mixed use development, including housing

Q8b - A new Hextable Parish Hub potentially at Hextable Park and redevelopment of the current Parish Council complex Q8c - Landscape improvements to Hextable village green Q8d - New development being limited to smaller scale growth on sites that don’t join Hextable and Swanley Village to Swanley and with supporting infrastructure Q8e - New spacious family homes Q8f - Homes and accommodation suitable for the needs of older people

The Master Vision identifies Swanley and Hextable as two places with their own communities

and social networks. Green spaces and Swanley Park act as a green corridor between Swanley

and Hextable, which should be retained, with access across Swanley and Hextable improved for

all.

The current Local Plan already recognises the need to improve infrastructure in Hextable. This

includes the provision of Primary School places and a single healthcare facility which is needed

to provide capacity for the existing population. There is an opportunity for the redevelopment of

the current Parish Council Complex with a new Hextable Parish hub and Hextable Park.

The Master Vision identifies Hextable village green as an attractive space affected by traffic in

the Dartford Road with some areas that are fenced off, overgrown and unusable. To the west of

the village Hextable Gardens provides an attractive open space linked to the parish office,

former Horticulture College and village hall. This forms part of the wider area of green space

between Swanley and Hextable (including Swanley Park).
